An alleged doctor swooped down on
the credulous invalids of this city two
or three weeks ago proclaiming his
ability to snatch from the iron jaws of
the "King of Terrors" all afflicted
mortals who had not yet passed down
the said kings gullet and found lodge
ment in his capacious NAV. He was
evidently hunting gudgeons and prob
ably found some, but not in numbers
sufficient to induce him to continue
the remarkable condescension needful
on his part to save this community
from the terrible fate which awaits it
if left to the tender mercies of our
regular physicians. IL seems almost a
pity that such wondrous powers over
disease should be lost to this commu-
nifty, but it is terrible fact no doubt,
and the poor afflicted people must SUBJ
parted and taken his diploma with
him, without which, it is cOnjectured
| by some incredulous people, no great
cures can be performed. Had he only
left that with us, speaking in its I'M
known tongue, we all might have been
cured in several languages in spite of
our regular physicians, but, 'he came,
he saw, and he skipped" and the
| places that now know him, will know
him no more as far as heard from, es-
pecially those whose shekels due and
unpaid are supposed to be with this
medical nomad in his meanderings.
Win the people ever learn that in
the treatment of disease, knowledge
and not gaul is an inestimable pre-
requisite to success! Will it ever
dawn upon the minds of credulous
mortals that ignorance cannot do what
knowledge can do, in anything, and
that where knowledge fails, ignorance
must of necessity fail! An incurable
disease is certainly no better off in the
hands of au ignorant stranger than in
the hands of well known educated
physician, and in durable complaints no
wandering nomad can convert his gdut
into a panacea for their humiliation.
The world is full of these humbugs
who never remain in one place long
enough to get acquainted, and it is a
rare thing to find any profitable re-
suits of their labors anywhere to the
afflicted ones on whom they impose,
and the wonder is that intelligent peo-
pie will suddenly, and without evil
dence to guide them, place their lives
in the hands of every physicing tramp
that heaves in sight, and be caught
by every new name that these jackalls
attach to curative pretenses, or be led
10 believe that some unknown pretend
er who has no visible habitatiOn on
Gods green earth, has found some
wondrOus way of healing disease, not
yet found by all the research and in
vestigation of all the great physicians
of earth. The people of this intelli-
gent generation should rise above such
inexcusable verdency.
